Vai Passar

In 'Vai Passar,' Gaab delves into the emotional turmoil of a painful breakup. The song opens with the protagonist's attempt to erase all traces of their former lover, symbolized by deleting their contact and forgetting their address. This act of erasure is a desperate effort to move on from someone who has caused immense pain, described bluntly as 'filha da puta,' a strong expression in Portuguese that conveys deep betrayal and hurt. Despite the raw pain, the repeated refrain 'vai passar' (it will pass) serves as a mantra of hope and resilience, suggesting that time will heal the wounds.

Gaab's lyrics reflect a struggle to find positivity amidst the heartbreak. The protagonist acknowledges their efforts to see the good in the relationship, only to realize that they deserve happiness and should not be held captive by past memories. This realization marks a turning point, where they decide to reclaim their narrative and not let someone else dictate their story. The song's message is empowering, emphasizing the importance of self-worth and the courage to move forward despite the pain.

The chorus, with its repetitive and almost meditative 'vai passar,' reinforces the theme of healing. The protagonist admits to not being okay but expresses confidence that they will eventually be fine. The repetition of 'você nunca me amou' (you never loved me) underscores the betrayal and emotional abuse they endured, highlighting the importance of recognizing and breaking free from toxic relationships. Gaab's soulful delivery and the song's poignant lyrics resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced the pain of unrequited love and the journey towards self-recovery.
